Future Andie

Describe your ideal week.

I’ve been experimenting with the concept of a future self. I know we all have one, but thinking forward and considering who she might be, is a bit new to me. Asking myself, who would I like her to be? Would the choices I’m making today be choices I hope she’s making? What would her ideal week look like? Hmmm

This past week has been nice. Actually any week in California had idealic components. Spending time with my friends and family is a big part of my ideal. Purposeful, creative work is another. Walking, yoga class, delicious meals, painting. Working and making sizable progress on an engaging project. Fun outings that inspire me. Cozy outings that soothe me. Plenty of beauty, fun and movement.

Flow.

Flow is my favorite. When things are moving: new information, new interests, new, mixed in with the already lovely things that I have established.

I love to get into that feeling of flow. When things fall together in perfect harmony.

My ideal week is a week of artistic and situational flow. When I feel my purpose making sense both inwardly and outwardly, when a need is filled and falls easily into my life. When my creative juices are flowing, I love it. For me it would be a week of calmly, confidently and peacefully working on my book and completing it. It includes refreshing breaks and beautiful moments. It’s a brilliant balance of everything I’m already grateful for.

Ideal is where my future me resides. I’m sure of it.
